On the night the Shanghai socialite accompanied the military officer, he broke his vow.

Chapter 56 From Now On, We Are All Your Family
"It's nothing, the doctor said I just caught a slight cold and need to rest."

Shen Jiaxue twitched the corner of her mouth.

This morning, Shen Jiaxue said her stomach hurt. Fu Mingqian was away on a business trip for the past two days. Tang Wanhua originally planned to take leave to accompany her to the hospital for a check-up, but Shen Jiaxue insisted that she could manage on her own.

Although Shen Jiaxue's words and actions are sometimes unpleasant, the child in her belly is, after all, a member of the Fu family. Tang Wanhua may criticize her on a daily basis, but she shows concern for her when necessary.

"It's alright. Come here quickly. This is Yueyue. Si Nian brought Yueyue back today."

After Tang Wanhua finished speaking, she smiled and looked at Song Jinyue, "Yueyue, this is your sister-in-law Shen Jiaxue."

"Sister-in-law."

Song Jinyue greeted him politely.

Upon learning Song Jinyue's identity, Shen Jiaxue's pupils dilated in shock.

Is she Song Jinyue?
No wonder even the third brother was captivated by her; she has such a seductive look!
Shen Jiaxue stared intently at Song Jinyue, her heart filled with a mix of emotions.

Why did that couple suddenly come back?
Thinking of what Tang Wanhua had said a few days ago about dividing the family property once the third son and his wife returned, Shen Jiaxue tightened her grip on her bag.

She forced a smile and suppressed her emotions. "So it's my third brother who's back. No wonder the house is so lively."

"This is the wife that my third brother just married. She's really beautiful. No wonder my usually cold and aloof third brother has suddenly become so charming."

Shen Jiaxue joked with a smile, her words implying that Song Jinyue had seduced Fu Sinian with her looks.

“I agree with that. Third Sister-in-law is the most beautiful person I have ever seen. If I were a man, I would definitely fall in love with her at first sight.”

"Hehe, Third Sister-in-law, if I can be reborn as a man in my next life, will you marry me?"

Xie Yiran is a sucker for good looks, and after getting to know Song Jinyue, she found her personality to be just what she wanted. Now she really likes this new sister-in-law.

If Grandma Fu and Tang Wanhua hadn't been sitting on either side of Song Jinyue, she would have had to sit right next to Song Jinyue.

Upon hearing this, Tang Wanhua smiled and tapped Xie Yiran's forehead, "You're just talking nonsense!"

"If Si Nian hears that you're trying to steal his wife, do you think he'll turn pale?"

Thinking of her usually cold and aloof third brother, Xie Yiran chickened out, "Forget it, I wouldn't dare to compete with my third brother for a wife."

Looking at the cheerful scene before her, Shen Jiaxue almost couldn't hold back her smile.

Finally, under the pretext of changing clothes, I turned around and went upstairs to the second floor.

Tang Wanhua and the others, caught up in their joy, didn't notice her unusual behavior and continued chatting and laughing in the living room.

Fu Xiuyan and Ye Sangning ate lunch at the research institute's canteen and didn't return until evening.

The children are either in school or in daycare, and none of them come back for lunch.

All four men in the family were busy in the kitchen, and lunch was quickly prepared.

There were vegetables and meat, a total of ten dishes were prepared. It was Song Jinyue's first time visiting the Fu family, so she was highly regarded.

"Yueyue, come and try your dad's and grandpa's cooking. Eat more, we're all family, don't be shy."

Tang Wanhua placed the bowl of rice in front of Song Jinyue. Although it was a small bowl, the rice was packed tightly.

"Thank you, Mom."

"Dad, Grandpa, thank you for your hard work."

The three people were overjoyed by those two sentences.

Grandpa Fu chuckled and said, "It's no trouble at all. Eat more. Tell Grandpa what you want to eat tonight and Grandpa will make it for you."

Just as Song Jinyue was about to speak, Grandma Fu said, "Yueyue, you don't know, your grandpa and your dad love to run into the kitchen whenever they have nothing to do at home. Your mom takes care of everything else at home, so the only thing they can really control is the kitchen." Grandpa Fu and Fu Shuwen coughed twice, looking annoyed.

Fu Shi'an chuckled, "Grandma, please don't reveal Grandpa and Dad's secrets to Third Sister-in-law."

"That's right, that's right, why are you saying this? Let's eat."

Grandpa Fu quickly changed the subject.

Previously, Grandma Fu was in charge of the family, but later she handed over the reins of the household to Tang Wanhua.

The Fu family's traditional way of getting along has always been that the man makes the decisions on important matters, while the woman listens to her husband on minor matters.

Unfortunately, nothing major has happened in the family so far.

The sky didn't collapse, and the earth didn't sink.

In other words, from the time Grandpa Fu got married until now, he and Fu Shuwen have never had the opportunity to make any decisions...

"By the way, Yueyue, how many days are you and Si Nian staying this time? If you have time, your dad and I will ask for leave tomorrow, and we'll go to Shanghai to visit your family."

Upon hearing that she was going to visit Song Jinyue's family, Shen Jiaxue, who was going downstairs, stopped.

She also wanted to know why Song Jinyue was completely unharmed after those tip-off calls.

"Mom, Si Nian didn't get much leave. We'll be going back in a couple of days. I told Si Nian that we'll ask for a few more days off after National Day when the army isn't so busy, and then we'll go back to visit Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu."

Tang Wanhua nodded, "Okay, your father and I will go visit our in-laws together then."

Fu Sinian and Song Jinyue exchanged a glance and then Fu Sinian explained the current situation of the Song family.

"These beasts! They brought this upon themselves, they deserve this fate!"

“Yueyue, you’ve suffered so much these years. You’re better off without a biological father like that. Don’t worry, we will all be your family from now on.”

Tang Wanhua looked at Song Jinyue with a pained expression, while in her heart she cursed Lu Weiguo and Shen Yurou a hundred and twenty times.

"Mom, I'm fine, don't worry."

Seeing the worry and heartache on Tang Wanhua's face, Song Jinyue offered a word of comfort.

Grandma Fu's eyes welled up with tears after hearing about her ordeal.

"Alright, Mom, Grandma, it's all over now. I'm perfectly fine, aren't I? Besides, if I hadn't gone through this, I wouldn't have come to Beijing, I wouldn't have met Si Nian, and I wouldn't be able to become part of your family."

After hearing Song Jinyue's words, the tense atmosphere at the dinner table eased considerably.

"I'm getting hungry, let's eat."

As Fu Sinian spoke, he placed a piece of meat into Song Jinyue's bowl.

"Okay, let's eat, let's eat."

After hearing the whole story, Shen Jiaxue gritted her teeth at the stairwell.

No wonder Song Jinyue is safe and sound; it turns out her stupid cousin heard the wrong information!
Now that she's already married into the Fu family, it's too late to say anything more.

Thinking of this, Shen Jiaxue took a deep breath and walked to the dining table with an unreadable expression.

Looking at the large table of dishes that the family had specially prepared for Song Jinyue's arrival, Shen Jiaxue felt somewhat indignant.

I had just sat down and picked up my chopsticks when I suddenly said something.

“Mom, Mingqian and Xiuyan aren’t home either. There’s so much food on the table that we can’t possibly finish it all. Wenzhu is in Beijing too, so why don’t we invite him over to eat with us? It’s been quite a while since we’ve seen him.”
